Meta Group - "Treo's Got a Problem"

Given all of the "I'm on my x'th Treo" posts (I'm on my second), I found this interesting:

"We are seeing disturbing evidence from our clients that PalmOne's extremely popular Treo 600 smart phone has a 25%-35% first-year failure rate (e.g., screens, headphone connectors, batteries). This is an alarmingly high rate of failure in a market that typically sees mobile phone failure rates of less than 5%. .....

Bottom Line: Clients considering Treo deployments should explore more reliable alternatives before settling on the Treo, or wait until the newer versions of the device are available."
